Parent article: SCO's conference call

I've slept and may be a little more coherent now...

Coherent,,,hehheh,,,get it?,,,Coherent,,,nevermind.

My crystal ball is clouded and I'm certainly not a lawyer but I'll predict the following:

1.) If SCO is silly enough to pursue any claims against Novell they may think appropriate, they are most likely to learn that "you cannot _retain_ what you do not _have_."

2.) Any statements of the sort "shall _RE_tain exclusive ownership rights of the XXXX operating system, XXXWare, and all copyrights, patents and developments pertaining thereunto, etc.blahblahblah" will not be considered to indicate that they will _OB_tain anything else, or that anything else is to be conferred onto them.

Can a battleship be sucked down in the vortex left by a sinking rowboat? I don't know.

Inspite of the censorship marks, the following:

UNIX is a regestered trademark of the Open Group in the United States and other countries.
Linux is a registered trademark of Linus Torvalds, a really nice guy.
Cetrum censo SCO delenda est.
